I have a few friends and family members (adults and school kids alike) who are traveling to Washington, DC to participate in the March for Life this week. My nephew's bus leaves in a few hours. I'm guessing many of you know people who are also attending.

Please join me in prayer for safe travels, warmth, strength, sustained good health, and ultimately, a successful impact coming from the prayers of thousands of Pro-Lifers.

may our loving and gentle mother, Blessed Virgin Mary and God keep them safe under their mantle for the Faithful participating in this most aspiration vigil in union with the saints and angels for the greater glory of God's kingdom, esp with the inclement weather -- winter and darkness ... may they have to guide their footsteps and keep them warm and safe until they are back safely home ....
